FAQ
Are waterproof shoes necessary in Tucson in January?
Probably worth it — about 5 rainy days on average. Water-resistant will do; full waterproof is overkill.
Do I need boots in Tucson in January?
A light boot is worth it for evenings, when temps drop to about 38°F. A sturdy sneaker also works.
Can I wear sandals in Tucson in January?
Not really — highs around 63°F are too cool for open shoes on most days.
Can I get by with one pair of shoes in Tucson in January?
Many travelers do fine with one strong walking pair. Add a second only if you need dress shoes or a wet-weather dedicated option.
What about dressy dinners in Tucson?
Most cities accept clean sneakers or light boots for smart-casual dinners. If you have a black-tie night, pack one dress shoe and wear your walking pair on the plane.
Any tips for packing shoes for Tucson?
Wear the bulkiest pair on the plane, stuff socks into the packed pair, and use a shoe bag so damp soles do not ruin clothes. Pack a thin spare pair of socks for rainy days.
